    Yeah I thought that too about the over-the-top comparisons. He's the most complete, but he's not better than the best of all-time in every category.

    I'd give him a 9 in arm, a 9 in quick release, 9.5 in ball handling and he's moving up the board in leadership.

      Its hard to have a qb like this and still be humble about skills. I am not hacking, but I looked at your numbers and went yeah that seems fair. Then paused and went holy crap he is great!!!

        Christian Ponder in the game with the Vikings down 39-10.
        I can't run no more
        With that lawless crowd
        While the killers in high places
        Say their prayers out loud
        But they've summoned, they've summoned up
        A thundercloud
        They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

          Ponder looks elusive and not bad. That is too bad.

            He needs to be elusive because he's running for his life on every play. Is the Vikings OL always that bad?

              So, will we see Ponder next Sunday? Hate to hear the phone calls on KFAN after this one. Man, this Vikings team played god-awful tonight. Even Ryan "it's the holders fault" Longwell had shankitis tonight.

                Holy crap. They called him the greatest QB to ever play the game and not even by a small stretch. I thought Collinsworth had some big praise last week. It was valid, entertaining, somewhat profound considering AR has never really been thought of as the best player in the game today. . . What they did on fox today made me kind of cringe.

                AR has none of the qualities they listed. He's not 10's across the board. If I had to rate him, I'd go like this. . . .

                10 in accuracy
                9.5 in smarts
                9.0 in cool
                8.5 in arm
                8 in athleticism

                I don't think it's a stretch to call him one of the most complete QB's to play, but come on, nobody is the greatest ever at everything. The day that happens everyone will know it. It would be like Tiger Woods in his prime, but even Tiger wasn't the best driver, iron hitter, short game hitter or putter. He was just complete, great at all of them, but the best at none.
                You know youre suppose to take your meds before posting man.

                I took as more of saying he has all these key elements to his game not that he was better at it than all those guys.

                  They were terrible.
